Respondus

What is Respondus?

Respondus is a powerful software application used to create and manage exams. Exams can be printed or published directly to Blackboard Learn. Tests can be built using a word processor and easily imported into the Respondus application. This application also works with LockDown Browser, so an instructor can require that a student must use that application when taking an exam.

Obtaining Respondus

Each year after July 31, you must request the new version of the client software for Respondus 4.0 and StudyMate Author along with a file that contains the information to complete the installation process. To do this, email tlt-consulting@purdue.edu and information will be sent to you including a new license key and the software download.

Those who attended learned of the many benefits of using the software, specifically importing exams created as Word documents and the advantages of downloading publisher testbanks.
